Good on ya!

BelArgUSA has just posted the basic concept of many, many 'decisions' that were being made a couple of years ago.

Many times the decision to bypass the B747-300 is totally based on things other than the efficient economics of operating a v/large aeroplane.

Like QF and AP!

It has been, and will always remain, that I believe that the B747-300 is by far the best jumbo aircraft ever made, bar none (including the oncoming!).

This is inline with my ongoing dogma that I believe going to 2 pilot crews on v/large airplanes, versus the 3 crew (2+1), was and remains a very questionable decision!

Cheers...FD...
